Course code: 1319
The following should be read in conjunction with the statements on the Bachelor of Commerce and the Bachelor of Economics.
The double degree course of Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Economics requires a minimum of four years full-time study, or five years for a degree with honours, or the equivalent in part-time study. Entry to this combination is based on the entry requirements for the Bachelor of Commerce degree. Students must complete subjects to the value of a minimum of 192 credit points over the length of the course, of which 108 to 192 points should come from subjects offered by the Faculty of Business and Economics (Clayton). The course structure is shown in chart 9 in the section `Charts of degree structures'.
This double degree program is one of the most flexible in the university. It allows from eight to twelve first-year subjects of which AAF1021/2 and AAF1031/2 (Accounting), ECM1020 and ECM1031/2 (Business and economic statistics), ECO1000 and ECO1010 (Economics), and MGC1020 and MGC1030 (Introduction to management) are compulsory. Students must complete a specialisation in economics or business statistics/econometrics. A second specialisation must be undertaken in accounting and finance, business management, the discipline not taken as the first major (economics or econometrics), or any discipline from another faculty. (Whilst each subject offered by the Faculty of Business and Economics (Clayton) has a points value of six, the points value of subjects taken from other faculties may vary, and where this occurs, students must complete the minimum number of points rather than the number of subjects recommended.) If the second specialisation is not from another faculty it is possible to complete a third specialisation from another faculty. Supporting studies must also be completed from one of the following disciplines not included as a specialisation: accounting, finance, business management, marketing, econometrics, or economics.
